Impatiently waiting for the release of the 2018 or 2019 Mac Pro

I currently use a 2008 Mac Pro and have been so happy with its performance and upgradability that I'm waiting to see what Apple offers when they release the new Mac Pro in 2018 or 2019. Anyone else waiting for its release because they are considering buying one?

I have a 2016 MacBook 15" Touchbar as my main machine. It's lightweight and somewhat fast. Battery is decent. The cons: USB-C support is still lacking. The keys on the keyboard stick quite a bit. I had to get the keyboard replaced since some keys just stopped working. The touchbar is a gimmick. I have many issues connecting to peripherals such as my 4k monitors, mouse and keyboard.

Here's a very interesting article about a guy who puts a 2009 Mac Pro up against newer Mac Pros, iMac's and so on. It holds up very well after about a decade after release. The article also mentions how he was able to go around the inability to upgrade the OS to the latest one.
